Suffering from Belly Fat?
\n <\/em><\/strong>

\"John<\/a>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

Like many people, you probably suffer from regional fat
\nstorage issues. That is, while you store fat over your
\nentire body, it’s probably most noticeable in certain
\nareas, and it’s from these areas in which we struggle
\nmost to losefat. You know–the problem areas.<\/p>\n

These problem areas are influenced heavily by your hormonal
\nenvironment, and where you store that last bit of fat is
\ndetermined by which of your hormones are most out of whack
\n(and yes, sometimes it’s quite a few of them).<\/em><\/p>\n

Today I’m going to talk to you about bellyfat specifically.<\/p>\n

One of the things that has been talked about quite a bit in
\nfitness media lately is the relationship between bellyfat and
\na hormone called “cortisol”<\/em>. To put it simply, the higher your
\ncortisol levels, the more bellyfat you’re likely to have.<\/p>\n

By the same token, if you have a good deal of bellyfat, it’s
\nreasonable to assume that you have high cortisol.<\/p>\n

Having high cortisol is detrimental for other reasons, but
\nfor our purposes, let’s focus on the fact that cortisol is
\nkeeping you not-so-lean in the middle.<\/p>\n

Rather than just suffer through this, the obvious solution is
\nto try to lower cortisol levels and resultantly lower bellyfat.
\nAnd I’ll tell you, lowering cortisol is a LOT trickier than you
\nmight think.<\/p>\n

I’m sure you’ve seen the late night TV ads trying to sell you
\nanti-cortisol pills. Even if they worked (which they don’t)<\/em>,
\na hormone like cortisol can’t be fooled by a little pill.<\/p>\n

Besides, wouldn’t it be much more effective to find a solution
\nwithout taking expensive pills? Something that is also going to
\nhelp you burnfat naturally<\/strong>?<\/p>\n

Well, that’s actually possible.<\/p>\n

You see, I’m big on using certain hormones to tame other
\nhormones. Essentially, you CAN actually fight hormones WITH
\nhormones<\/strong>. Clever, I know. It’s just a matter of finding which
\nhormones work well against one another. When it comes to
\ncortisol (and bellyfat), you need look no further than
\nGrowth Hormone.<\/p>\n

Also known as Human Growth Hormone or simply GH, growth hormones
\nis produced in the pituitary gland and is responsible for growth
\n(obviously) among other things. More specific to this writing,
\ngrowth hormones is actually one of the most effective things in
\nthe world to offset cortisol.<\/p>\n

Put simply, if you want less cortisol, just make more growth hormone.<\/p>\n

Just tell you body to do it. Make a few calls.<\/p>\n

Okay okay, it’s not that simple…
\nbut I have some really good news.<\/p>\n

Did you know that there are certain types of training that
\nare actually exceedingly effective at producing growth hormone?<\/p>\n

It’s true–indirectly.<\/p>\n

You see, growth hormone is normally produced and released in
\nresponse to something, and in the case of training, GH is
\nreleased as a response to the production of something called
\nlactic acid. Lactic acid is a waste byproduct of some of the
\nchemical and metabolic processes that happen during exercise.<\/p>\n

So, if you do exercise in a specific way, you can produce MORE<\/strong>
\nlactic acid, which will then produce tremendous amounts of
\ngrowth hormone as a result. That growth hormone surge will
\nalso help to work against your high cortisol levels.
\nAnd as we’ve established, that will absolutely assist
\nyou in getting rid of your stubborn bellyfat.<\/p>\n

Of course, you’re wondering: how do I do it!?
\nIt’s easy. While lactic acid is produced in most forms of
\nintense exercise, there is an unusual style of exercise<\/strong> that
\ncan actually produce even MORE lactic acid than is generally
\npossible with other types of exercise. Appropriately
\n(and not-so-cleverly) called “lactic acid training”<\/em>, this type
\nof training uses slow lifting speeds and fast lowering speeds.<\/p>\n

(It’s the exact opposite of the way most people lift in the gym!)<\/em><\/p>\n

The reason for the structure is that lactic acid is primarily
\nproduced during the “concentric”<\/em> or positive\/lifting phase of
\nan exercise, and not so much during the “eccentric” <\/em>or
\nnegative \/ lowering phase. To take advantage of this and
\nproduce more lactic acid, we simply–with apologies to
\nBing Crosby–accentuate the positive and (almost but not quite)
\neliminate the negative of each rep on all of our exercises.<\/p>\n

To quantify it a bit, for each rep, you’d lift it over a
\nperiod of about 4 seconds, and lower the weight extremely
\nquickly, but safely.<\/p>\n

If you were squatting, you’d drop down to the bottom position
\nrelatively quickly, and push slowly back to the top. In an
\noverhead press, you’d lower the dumbbells quickly but safely,
\nand press them back over your head over a period of 4-6 seconds.<\/p>\n

Performing exercises with these extended concentric movements
\nis going to create a tremendous amount of lactic acid, which in
\nturn is going to prompt your body to produce fantastic amounts
\nof growth hormone. And that growth hormone is going to help you
\nmanage cortisol and fight bellyfat.<\/p>\n

And if all THAT wasn’t enough, lactic acid training is
\nalso just a great fat loss training methods, so you’ll
\nlosefat overall.<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you want to fight your cortisol issues, you need growth
\nhormone. And for that you need lactic acid training.
\nUtilizing this method, you’re one step closer to fighting
\noff your bellyfat for good.<\/p>\n

Pretty cool, huh? My buddy John is a MASTER at pinning “good”<\/em>
\nhormones and specific exercises up against the “bad”<\/em> hormones
\nthat cause regional fat-storage.<\/p>\n

And in his new program (which is available for 52% OFF
\nuntil tomorrow), “Final Phase Fat Loss”<\/a> provides you with
\nspecific types of exercises and workouts to combat:<\/p>\n

1. Estrogen, “man boobs”<\/em> and lower-bodyfat
\n(combatted with “Density” training and Testosterone)<\/p>\n

2. Insulin, and your “love handles”<\/em>
\n(combatted with “Dynamic” training and IGF-1)<\/p>\n

3. And of course, Cortisol and bellyfat
\n(combatted with specific “Lactic Acid” training and GH)<\/p>\n

If you struggle with “problem area” fat storage,
\nthis is THE program to set you free. And right now,
\nit’s still 52% OFF (but not for much longer).<\/p>\n

I hope you enjoyed today’s article, and I hope you choose
\nto invest in John’s killer fat-blasting training system before
